Amongst the more naughtier circles of conversation, making a circle shape with your pointer finger and thumb means basically one thing: your arse.

Holding it up equals “This. Is your arse.” The bigger the circle you can make, the more the joke is on your intended victim.

For those of you who don’t understand Fijian, here’s a rough translation of the joke, although jokes like these are best spoken and acted out rather then read. Also it goes without mention that if you do indeed know Fijian, you can skip this here below paragraph and just watch the video via yasiboiyawa.

A kaivalagi (white person) man visits a fijian village and becomes good friends with one of the village men. They hung out a lot, worked together in the garden etc. Soon, it was time for the kaivalagi to go back. It was a sad moment for the both of them. The (somewhat old & noisy) bus arrives, and they exchange tearful goodbyes. ”Goodbye!” Said the fijian man, “Goodbye! Make sure you come back one day!” The kaivalagi nodded, held his hand up in the ‘Ok’ sign and yelled “OK!”.

Without missing a beat, the Fijian man shakes his hand furiously in the same hand signal and screams, “THAT’S YOUR SIZE!”

Hilarity ensures.

Interestingly “colour vata” is pretty much on the spot in a literal translation sort of way, with “vata” meaning “same”, so translated word for word it would be “colour same”.

Wish we had an urban dictionary for Fiji…now that would rock…Fiji Times own online dictionary not counted since I highly doubt you’d find “boci” within its pages.
